In this game it all about multiplication. You have to click on the right fish. Every time you get the right fish you get 5 points. When you get 50 points the game ends. I got 50 points in 1.07.13 seconds.

Race Relations Day

We have race Race Relations Day to celebrate our first language. I spoke Maori and other people spoke a variety of languages. From Spanish to Burmese to cook island and a boys mother even came to speak about her country.

Amanda from Activboard and me

Today I talked to Amanda about my work on the Netbook and what we do on the Google docs. She was interested about learning my story of Natasha Shackleton. Then I told her about how bubble gum was made. I told her a fact that bubble gum gets stuck in your digestive system for seven years if you swallow it. She was shocked when she heard that.

Her artworks can be found brightening up homes and offices throughout New Zealand and the world.  She can work from nearly any medium from acrylic paint to photo realism style.

Estimate multiplication

This game is about estimation. I rounded off numbers to the nearest ten. This is my strategy.I rounded 456 to  500 because the 456 is closer to 500 not 400.

The I made the 67 a 70 because 67 is closer to 70 than 60.

So I used a strategy of 500 x 70 = 35 000

It was challenge but I managed to get it right. The correct answer is C. Next, I want to learn how to do it faster.
